Tulsi Gabbard discusses Trump and Zelensky with Shannon Bream. 3/2/25
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard discussed the exchange between President Trump and Zelensky with “Fox News Sunday” host Shannon Bream.
“What is the intelligence community’s assessment of Vladimir Putin and his future ambitions?” Bream asked.
“Well, I want to focus first of all on President Trump’s goal and the reality that’s on the ground and that’s the thing that seems to be getting lost in what we are seeing in President Zelensky’s statements in the White House,” Gabbard said.
“President Trump recognizes the urgent need to end this war after three long bloody years and has proven that he is the only person that can do this,” Gabbard said.
“President Zelensky has different aims in mind. He has said that he wants to end this war, but he will only accept an end apparently that leads to what he views as Ukraine’s victory even if it comes at an incredibly high cost of potentially World War 3 or even a nuclear war,” Gabbard continued.
Gabbard said that Zelensky’s reaction at the White House showed that he didn’t appear to really want to negotiate.
“When President Zelensky directly challenged President Trump and Vice President Vance in front of the media and the American people, he really showed his lack of interest in any real good faith negotiations,” Gabbard said.
“President Zelensky’s immediate escalation there was frankly quite a surprise. This has created a huge rift in the relationship,” Gabbard continued.
“There’s going to have to be a rebuilding of any kind of interest in good faith negotiations I think before President Trump is going to be willing to reengage on this,” Gabbard continued.
Gabbard also emphasized the importance of ending the war to prevent further loss of life after being asked by Bream about Zelensky’s distrust of Vladimir Putin.
“Really there’s two viable paths here. One is that this war continues on as it has for over three years. More and more Ukrainians will lose their lives. More and more of the country of Ukraine will be decimated and destroyed,” Gabbard said.
“President Trump sees this reality so the alternative to this which he is so intent on which he talked about continuously throughout his campaign that the American people voted for is his commitment to ending this war and bringing about peace,” Gabbard continued.
